>> we are seeing the real impact of persistent low and negative , and we arees benefiting, so my view is this is one of the big reasons why we have such anger in the world, ourted to brexit, in political process, because from my perspective, as you said, equity markets are up. i am sure the real estate market is doing better with the persistence of lower rates. people with r enjoying this environment and people who are to helping every day them build a nest egg for retirement or a nest egg to buy in the -- to build enough to buy a house or a nest egg for their children'future, they are being harmed. we see a real division. >> surely the fed sees what you see and understand what you

understand. >> i do not think they truly understand this. i actually believe these are incredibly smart, articulate who are trying to re-stimulate the economy. the only bold characters in the whole economics game. seen politicians reengage an extraordinary fiscal measures to get this going again. you do not believe janet yellen, the federal market committee, and federal anchors in europe and japan, do not understand? >> i will not identify one banker or another but generically, i do not think they calculate the cost, the whole global cost of interest rates and what the impact is. >> their congressional mandate does not tell them to. >> but so my view is, i

understand with the mandate is your you are asking me what my view is on how this is impacting the economy and i think this is a component of what is creating anger. members of the federal reserve are beginning to share some of these concerns. say the committee is beginning to splendor. we had three dissents yesterday for the first time since 2014. what does that tell you? >> i don't know. we are getting at the cusp of higher rates. have, and iing we expect the fed to do nothing, so it is not a surprise to me, despite my long-term views. we have to be worried about the value of the dollar. a desired outcome for the moment . our economy is growing at 2%. we are struggling with the strength of a dollar. our biggest trading partner like --ico or the yen is touching the peso is touching in mexico 22 the dollar.

just eight few months ago, -- just a few months ago, higher interest rates. it is having an impact in some parts of the world. i think it is hard for our , so asymmetric versus the continuation of aggressive monetary policy in japan, aggressive monetary policy in the uk, and aggressive monetary policy in europe. start --is why you are starting to see the dissent because we are doing better than most of these other economies, but we are not doing well enough. i do believe we are too aggressive in raising rates in front of all of this aggressive policy elsewhere. think it will be destabilizing for our country in the long run. in addition, a lot of political uncertainty going forward between now and our election.

many people at the u.n. in the the political uncertainty in europe is only growing. you were not surprised the fed did not move in a market was not surprised. priced in 20%. a different story. janet yellen all but promised we would see a rate hike in december and there is a 60 plus percent probability this morning that is what will happen. >> what if it doesn't? then the economy is much weaker or we have had other circumstances in the world either politically or economically that becomes more unsettling. >> you can find them and you have done that on several occasions here. >> there is a competitiveness that the economy is not operating as well as you wanted it to. janet yellen has been consistent that we would eat data dependent

. one interpretation may be different from another, but i think we are at the cost. would be surprised if we do not tighten in december. scarlet: that was erik schatzker speaking with larry think. a lot more coming. blackrock's global chief investment officer will be joining us than. coming up, investors are migrating more and more to lower cost investing strategies like eds. -- etf. does that pose a threat for active fund managers? i will of the father of the index fund explain. traded. are heavily perfectly good uses. i am afraid it is dominated by traders in the long run and traders are a gift to wall street and by definition, therefore, not a gift to the investors doing trading. ♪

scarlet: the shebang passes problems with regards to its issues are a concern among german lawmakers. we hear there is a close section of finance figures this week. if you look at deutsche bank shares traded in the u.s., you can see that shares have fallen to the session lows even as they are higher now. if you look at deutsche bank shares traded in thestill up abs the light lower file -- following that headline. we will check in with our reporter in germany later in this hour to discuss the story.

i want to take a deep dive into the bloomberg using this function. man i like to do the slot. there is so much good information. you go to special reports at the there is a can see great story and a great presentation put together by williams called the great cost migration. it talks about how investors are moving funds. story. fascinating even funds that are outperforming the market, they chose the fidelity fund crushing its benchmark index. they chose the vanguard fund beating the etf that invests in the same strategies. even those funds are seeing big outflows because of the cost. scarlet: and you're seeing that across asset classes. funds, 0.7% from 0.9% in 2010.

that has been the case, a trend line going down. it does not matter if it is at the funds, bond funds, it has all been coming down. the question is is that still enough? those are still higher than the 0.25% average or the 0.1% fee of an index fund. was surprised even back in the 1990's, only 100 basis points for a mutual fund but 10 basis points for an etf, that is a no-brainer. hedge funds have been coming down. big funds like the new jersey pension fund have been saying we will pull out of these because they are too expensive. two and 20 is what we all know. 2% management fee, 20% incentive fee, that was standard for the industry 4, 5, 6 years ago.

to 17.5ave come down and 1.5%ncentive fee management fee. hedge funds are getting sort of put in line by the big investors. scarlet: and it does not exist in the same way anymore. a lot of people have shares as well which reduce the cost to investors. when you look at performance, that is a different story, explaining in part why people demand and request lower fees. all this great research and with a fantastic presentation. coming up, we'll talk to the seedseed -- the ceo of ups. he is in favor of ttp. this is bloomberg. ♪

matt:matt: the time is now to pass the transpacific partnership according to the ceo of cbs -- david gora is here now with the interview. let me start by asking you what this means for ups. what is on the line here for your company if ttp passes? >> you have to remember we do not manufacture anything but we ship our customers goods. when we look at trade agreements, ttp in particular, we are looking through the eyes of our customers, who are telling us that they need to be able to hit these markets that are covered in ttp and it is very important to them that they they need somes, of the complexity taken out of international trading rules.

that is why we are supporting ttp. david: you have got a hub in china, which is pursuing his own trade deal. you have a good vantage point to watch all of that play out. how integral is the fact that china is work in on the other side on a deal of its own? >> that is true that they are negotiating at this point. is a good it opportunity for american businesses and american workers. u.s. is involved in setting the trade rules for that part of the region, we just believe that things that are important to us like labor coverages, like environmental issues and they would -- intellectual property, those are things we think the world is just suited if the u.s. takes leadership in the ttp. you are lobbying at capitol hill. what percentages on the ttp and

how do you think they might vote on this? >> i could not tell you what percent of our lobbying it is, i could tell you we see a varied amount of interest. a lot of people in washington understand the value of trade. they just need to be convinced that this trade deal is the best deal we could place in front of them. that it is. we just keep talking about the benefits to our customers and especially for us. we have access to thousands of small businesses. those are the people whose voices get overlooked. those are the companies that really take advantage of the trading scheme. david: let me ask you about the way you are speaking out. those who oppose this say it will benefit big corporations and here you are at the head of a corporation. do you worry you are giving that

to them? thinkhave to do what we is right, for our company, our customers, and our country. we believe this is about embracing the future, about the able to reach these emerging markets, that the economies are continuing to grow, that this is actually a job creator and not the job killer that some people portray this to be. david: your career, you started out as a college student working at night loading trucks. would a younger david have understood the implications of the deal? when i was 18 years old, i absolutely would not have. thatis one of the reasons not only are we having discussions with our customers the advantagesm

of this, but we are also talking and letting them understand the importance of it. a key fact for us as a company is every 22 packages that we process across the border of the united states, creates another job for ups. so we and our employees can relate practice -- packages to jobs and that is the point we are making. david: are you at all surprised by how politicized this has become surrounding the trade deal? >> i am surprised a little bit with how vocal the opposition has in. it is up to us, those of us who really understand the trade deal, and understand that 95% of consumers, like the united the key to american businesses and american workers to be successful is to find ways to serve those markets.

i think it is up to those of us to believe in free trade make sure we get our message across and that is what i'm doing. bit, weivoting here a have at statement from the commission a few days ago and the secretary of the treasury said it could be a turning point in the conversation for corporate tax reform in the u.s. what it means for ups, if you think we are at a turning point here. >> as far as what it means for ups, i do not know it has a direct impact on us, but what i can tell you is we absolutely support comprehensive tax reform in the u.s. forre looking for stability a permanent rate, a competitive rate which we think is about 25% and we are looking for a competitive and territorial tax

scheme to where companies can bring back profits from overseas. .e believe this is a big issue we understand to get that kind of competitive rate, we would need to have a broader corporate tax base. we are in support of that. a fundamental aspect of working with the u.s. government that we need to change. david: all right. thank you very much. scarlet: still ahead, german lawmakers expressing concern, taking notice of the stock losing over half its italian this year. what are they going to do about it? this is bloomberg. ♪

120 countries. this is bloomberg. want to get back now to a story we broke for you earlier this hour. -- joining us now, in berlin, how significant is this, the junior member of the , and we all know deutsche bank is having serious problems. >> what i think has triggered this is $14 billion fine that the justice department is to mandate. that has focused minds here in berlin and the social democrats are the junior partner, very wary of commenting on the entire saga and the bank's woes.

it shows that the matter is now seeping into the political corridors of berlin if you will. and they cannot avoid the topic anymore. feeling thate any in berlin, regulators have gone too far? it is a whopping fine considering the role deutsche bank played compared to other banks that played bigger roles and did not pay such big fines. think there is an expectation among german regulators from what has been reported that the fine will be lowered. in other words, that there will be a settlement. the german finance ministry, which, generally, as you said, has been reluctant to comment on this. the other day, they said we do expect the u.s. to give deutsche bank a fair shake, in other words, a fair outcome that lowers the fine significantly.

yes, there is that expectation. there is a concern in berlin, a led to a verythat general sort of discussion of the matter. , the concernout for the long-term solvency of almost a national treasure although it is a publicly traded country, is there concern that deutsche bank could actually fall apart? >> i guess that concern is always out there. , and the german government, when you talk to people privately, they are obviously aware of that. it is germany's biggest bank and it is in trouble, so yes, that is obviously an option that is out there. on the other hand, it is not in theublic he discussed

least. and again, this discussion that ,e got wind of was very much that it came up in the meeting, when other things were under discussion and it was this kind socialnt where democratic lawmakers said, then there is this too. matt: i am trying to get my head around exactly what the general feeling is, not just in the meeting, but you know u.s. regulators, between deutsche leviedd volkswagen, have $30 billion of fines on german companies, at least until some of them negotiated down. of backlash ornd a detriment to the relationship because of that? >> that is not happening, not at the government level. ,here has been some chatter

media chatter, about, they seem to be, is this, you know, whatever, is it retribution for the eu's fine on apple, or the eu's tax bill being presented to .pple of course, i do not know how that could be substantiated at this point. thatnk it is fair to say the chancellor has no intention of picking a fight with the u.s. over this. to get your thoughts on this. we really appreciate your time tonight. tony coming to us from berlin. we noted, deutsche bank shares are higher in u.s. otherg along with most u.s. risky assets. this is the global macro mover and you can see it is a quick way to check out the moves across these, currencies, bonds, and commodities. for bonds, hotter prices and lower yields. the only red we really see here

is the insurance policy against the new zealand government defaulting here and creepy up a little bit. otherwise, you see green and everyone is off to the races after the concern that it is not interest-rateaise in what was described as a hawkish hold in policy rates. let's go to abigail doolittle live at the nasdaq with more details. abigail: we have the nasdaq in rally mode from yesterday when it put in a record closing high on pace for a new record closing high. a lot of this has to do with technology. both stocks trading at record highs. amazon at an upgrade to buy and other from the nasdaq today. this is after cisco and salesforce announced a packed. the two companies collaborating with cloud systems and software. this is viewed as a real positive considering cisco

systems make a real shift toward software and away from hardware. clearlynvestors are shearing the announcement. i am looking at apple firmly associated with the nasdaq. what are we seeing there? higher, the second-biggest right behind amazon today. a lot are bullish, including tim, who essentially called on apple last summer when he downgraded the stock at that time. he has since upgraded today. we also have rbc capital, pretty bullish on this stock ahead of all the bullish reports. he thinks the average selling price could exceed that price.

back here in 2013, iphone seven or iphone 5. the stock climbs more than 140%. low expectations though recently on the iphone seven, we have the stock peeking around those resistance levels, suggesting we could see a similar move higher with bullish news and analysis over the iphone seven, with some analysts saying the iphone eight due out next year is going to be a rare -- real super cycle. >> now to the iphone eight. thank you so much. matt: let's get some more insight into apple. vehicle ambitions, a far more

theresting story with mark, bloomberg technology reporter, covering the story out of san francisco. gearhead, i was super excited to read this scoop and i was a little bummed out mclaren now says apple is not in talks to make any kind of investment haired where did the idea stand? >> apple is looking to make a strategic investment in the automotive group, the maker of a million -- million-dollar race cars and formula one racing back in europe. i think apple is looking at mclaren in terms of investment rather than acquisition. indicative ofs apple's plan for entering the automotive industry and taking on europe and detroit and tesla. >> that might be the case but what we had heard for a self

driving car, what is the link? a couple oforted months ago, apple has two pads they can forge ahead on it one is building their own car start theinish in partnering with manufacturer. we had the holding big story on the manufacturer called magna, but there is another route they could take. they could build their own self driving platform and market and carmakers.o other i think that is where mclaren comes into play. with the strategic investment, apple would have it in its back pocket. down the road, if they choose to go the route where they build a platform rather than a whole card system, they could sell it, they would already be partners, it would get all of the exposure it gets as one of the preeminent carmakers for customers around -- across the world, they would immediately get into the race car world will formula one, great marketing for them, so

from investment and apple building their own car system it seemsan entire car, like a safe pick for apple. matt: i do not think enough people in the u.s. understand how big formula one is. more than half of people watch. it is incredibly strong. also that mclaren has a cutting edge innovative design. you guys quote him yesterday, the automotive unit, i can confirm it is not a discussion for apple with any potential investments. did he not know? >> over 50%, it is very possible

apple is dealing with them correctly. it would be correct for michael to say that his group is not in talks with apple. it could be they are investors instead. matt: it is exciting nonetheless. head to bloomberg.com to check out mark'stories. scarlet: coming up, we will have an interview with the lincoln ceo and emily chang will speak with him on the day of the fall product launch. you can catch the conversation a 1:00 p.m. eastern time. this is bloomberg. ♪

in terms of chronological order. some of the areas that make absolute sense come integrating linkedin identity assets within outlook, for example. when someone send you an e-mail, you know who they are. you see if the job changed, the boxpany -- it brings the ins b x to life. more deeplye to integrate our learning assets into windows come into office and the dynamics with regard to continuing to differentiate the business applications that are generating real momentum through leveraging sales navigator, things we can do with recruiter in terms of human capital management. emily: i understand yet it is for linkedin to remain largely independent. how do you expect this to work in practice and how will it impact the culture of linkedin

that you worked hard to build? from day one, they said it's important that we continue to focus on growing linkedin. both teams are completely a line that objective. that makes it a lot easier. it's made easier by the fact that -- that's where m&a goes off the rails. disparate cultures. the underlying cultures are already naturally allied in terms of being mission driven. has been very mission and purpose driven since he has taken on the role of the ceo. terms of being innovative come in terms of trying to create a sense of openness. we are seeing a lot of alliance. mintingow do you your independence and stay focused on the synergistic goal? jeff: we thought about how to

naturally align the strategies. it becomes intuitive. it does not require a lot of disruption. one thing i would like to see us get to is we get to a point where it is no longer considered adequate vision integration -- acquisition integration. the team responsible for the profile, profile apis, thinking through that outlook integration , that is something they're are looking forward to doing because it accelerates the utilization of the teams objective. this deal surprised the market. m&a,s kicked off a wave of a wave of speculation about more m&a. have you had executives coming to you rethinking their desire to stay private? same companies that

were thinking about staying private previously have very specific reasons to stay private. i don't know that consolidation played a role in that. -- thishe pros and cons debate goes on cyclically over many years. in terms of the increasing consolidation, we will continue to see that trend. it's less about public-private and more about how the competitive landscape continues to evolve. the importance of scale over time. emily: where do you see more consolidation? you are the first big social network to go for m&a. there was a lot of speculation about twitter. jeff: i would be looking more from the acquirer front than the companies being acquired. you have a lot of activity taking place. business applications will increasingly be used to differentiate these huge offerings.

wee of the consolidation will see will be good for all customers of cloud infrastructures. emily: what do you think are the benefits of remaining small and lean versus going -- and vice versa -- jeff: the smaller you are, the easier it is. there is fewer things that add complexity. the larger business becomes the more people you up to manage, the more businesses you are in, it naturally increases the difficulty through complexity. the companies that have the most initial success are those companies that remain focused on their core for as long as possible. everything about reinforcing that core and reaching critical mass. over time, businesses one to grow. that's want to grow. at times, they will have far greater scale and far more resources to continue to invest

and continue to innovate. when example would be a i. you see the critical mass of the expertise required to really ish the envelope in ai increasingly in the hands of a smaller number of companies. scarlet: linkedin has seen a lot of success in china. you have traveled there many times. how these he linkedin helping microsoft in china? jeff: microsoft already has a well-established position there. microsoft's global footprint is very impressive. we were just in india and had a chance to rollout products. has met with the prime minister on multiple occasions. microsoft has a huge presence in japan. that's a market where we have not invested in as aggressively,

but we think we can jumpstart that. microsoft's global footprint could have meaningful impact on the way we think about global. emily: you have a new learning product building off one of your biggest acquisitions -- how do you expect the education and learning part of the business to be relative to the whole? jeff: it can be a meaningful contributor to the top and bottom line. there is the enterprise part of that business where we are leveraging our multi-partner and customers where we can sell into those businesses beyond the recruiting tools we've been telling historically. on the consumer side, we are able to seamlessly integrate linkedin learning into our premiums and packages without charging an additional fee. that can help her attention. -- retention. there's a lot of

excitement around bots. they take a while to hit the mainstream. when do you see them going mainstream and how do you maintain the quality of the interaction? you maintain quality by being focused. not doing bots for the sake of doing bots. in the valley, there seem to be these new introductions of new technologies and people get really excited and they become very buzz word oriented and you have to get past that and think about how the new technology is creating value for people. the example we should today's how-to members connecting on linkedin through messaging can schedule a meeting. something people want to do through linkedin. you have to go in and out of multiple applications and this really accelerates that process, makes it much more seamless and intuitive that is something that will create quality. you have to focus on getting that right before you move on to the next one.

over time, you will see some platforms evolving. microsoft is investing aggressively in a platform -- that's where you can see a lot of innovation on the east. -- unleashed. emily: jeff weiner unveiling some new products today. matt, back to you. , jeff weiner. ceo this is bloomberg. ♪

aggressive brawler. she is not as good at branding herself as she is at talking about the issues. is preparing to aggressively if he saystrunk something dishonest or untrue in the debate. matt: have you seen any indication that donald trump toned down his rhetoric? has he become more presidential? has he been sticking to the advice given to him by his handlers? sahil: the short answer is no. there are moments where he does appear more restrained. the joint appearance he did with the mexican president some weeks ago, that was a much more even keel tempered donald trump.

he has his moments and then reverts back to what his natural aate is, the bluster to be straight shooter and say what comes to his mind. he has moments and then he reverts back. we don't know which one will show up. there is a debate within the trunk campaign about how aggressive he should go. or if you should go straight -- and attack clinton. himself is conflicted because he put out a fundraising e-mail a couple hours ago where he asked his supporters to say -- answer questions like, should he call her crooked hillary? sure it will depend

on what transpires on stage. how he feels in the moment. hillary clinton is familiar with presidential debates. how much catch-up is the trump camp doing as a result? sahil: the trump campaign has a lot of catch-up to do. if you gets a question about an could stumble, he and that could end up looking really bad for him because one thing he needs to do is pass the commander in chief test. not have theoes experience to be president and they worry about his temperament. that is a big sticking point that hillary clinton will do everything she can to try to exploit. anil: hillary clinton has advantage when it comes to women or minority voters. i saw this morning that

long time. whether something was wrong in this particular case, god only knows. on, i would be very surprised -- knowing leon, i would be very surprised. david: how blurry does the line get? how difficult is it to draw that line whether it's insider information or not? wilbur: leon is mainly in public securities. we are more in private investments. we are generally on the boards, we play an active role in the company. our whole relationship with the company is very different. we get into blackout periods

where you can trade at all. we are quite scrupulous about that. leon is very good at guessing what companies will do. very clever you are and you know the company pretty , youand you know them think about it, most actions are logical. if you know the company really well, you ought to be able to put yourself pretty well in the manager's head and say i think it is logical for them to do this, that or the other thing. if you guessed this right, that should not be called insider information. whether there was some sort of supplement to it, somebody said something over the phone, i have no way to judge that. is not a guy digging around looking for insider trading. alix: is this a different sec?

edward cohen and his son jonathan are involved in a lot of these companies and we were able to go all the way back to at least 2000 to see how leon and his son, wayne, had invested with the cohen family. thing cooperman pointed out, he has lost money on a lot of his investments linked to the cohens. caleb: in two instances, we can these cohenle of family companies fell 80% or more. , leon filed for the spinoff of atlas where he sold a .unch of shares matt: we did hear from one executive that he was shocked and appalled that leon cooperman

allegedly called him after he found out about the sec suit and try to make up a story. he is referred to as executive one. caleb: we have no idea who that executive is at this point. anrlet: if you liken this to episode of billions, it is the sec, not the doj. why is that significant here? caleb: it is significant in the sense that -- if you read the complaint and leon's defense, what you are getting into is some pretty esoteric trading stuff between options and realized gains versus unrealized gains. follow you hard to and if you want to go point by point, you read leon's letter to investors yesterday.

it seems like a pretty staunch defense. matt: how bad could this be? when the sec brings charges, you end up with a fine -- no admission of wrongdoing. caleb: for him, this is about his reputation, which is thrilling and massive in the industry historically. he will fight it all the way. investors can return to worrying about the fun metals. julie hyman's chart of the outlook for earnings. this is bloomberg. ♪
